Part of their 6-pack boxed mixed pack from The Beer Store. Pours a dark brown colour with copper highlights. The head is creamy, warm light-beige with good retention and beautiful creamy lacing. Roasted malt aromas with a mild sweetness of chocolate and coffee latte. Malted barley taste with hints of licorice, and good hops creating a decent bitter finish. Not too dry, but gets dryer is it lingers. A very nice bitter Imperial stout.

Part of the Ontario Craft Brewers IPA mixed 6-pack. Pours a golden-amber colour, very slightly unfiltered with a warm, creamy, foamy big head that lasts a while and leaves creamy-bubbly lacing. Sweet malt nose with grassy hops. The hops gives a nice bitterness with the grassiness in the flavours, over mild cereal grains. A good dryness appears in the finish. Some decent orange zest. A nice old-school bitter IPA.

473 can that pours a hazy golden colour with a slight off-white, bubbly head, little under-average retention, leaving a ring of bubbles. Does not smell like an IPA. As a sparkling wine drinker, this really shows more of this, than an IPA. Hops are well-hidden. More malty and yeasty. Hints of fruits, mostly citrus in the background. The taste shows not much bitterness, and again, more of a wine base with some mild yeast. Even the carbonation is like a sparkling, with tiny bubbles. Easy drinking like the description says, sure, but dry crisp finish - not really. Still, an nice beer with higher alcohol.

Enjoyed at Pints & Quarts. Pours a clean golden colour with a white cap, good stay and decent creamy lacing. Malty nose, nothing more. The taste shows more character with a nice balance between the cereal malts, grainy notes and mild spicy hops. A slight dry mouthfeel. One of the very well-balanced Nita beers. Reminds me of Heritage Brewery grain and the Steam Whistle spiciness of hops. Would have again.

Can that pours a mildly hazy, light golden-yellow colour with a white bubbly head, decent stay and some good patchy lacing. Fruity aromas of mostly citrus notes, with just a hint of pineapples. They do a little better in the taste, adding some sweetness, but not excessively. The sourness is also there, but not too crazy. Happy about this, as too many sour beers recently, and like my Radlers - so keep it 50/50 beer-fruit juice. All in all, surprised with this one. Well-balanced with the fruitiness, sweetness and sourness..

Can: Poured a clear golden color ale with a large white foamy head with OK retention and light lacing. Aroma of cereal notes with light dry hoppy notes. Taste is also a mix of light dry hoppy notes with some cereal notes and light residual sugar notes. Body is about average as well as carbonation. Too lightly hopped for an APA but OK for a golden ale.
